In each such case, the shareholder shall be solely responsible for the payment of any premium.

In such instances, Computershare is authorized to debit the Company’s checking account to replace a replacement check.

The parties hereto agree that, in light of the unique characteristics of each instance in which Services are to be performed, Computershare makes no representation or warranty that any of the Services shall be performed at any set time or under any deadline, and Computershare shall not be liable for any change in the market value of any security at any time. Under no circumstances shall either party be liable for any special, indirect, incidental, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, lost profits), even if such party has been advised of the possibility of such loss or damage.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Computershare shall not be liable in connection with:

(i) The legality of the issue, sale or transfer of any Shares, the sufficiency of the amount to be received in connection therewith, or the authority of the Company to request such issuance, sale or transfer;

(ii) The legality of the purchase of any Shares, the sufficiency of the amount to be paid in connection therewith, or the authority of the Company to request such purchase;
